Investment thesis
Alesta invests in high-growth-potential technology startups, primarily targeting companies that have begun producing a product or service, have existing customers and are aiming to scale, as well as ventures with a ready product that need financing to launch sales and marketing. Rather than acquiring companies outright, Alesta becomes a partner by taking an agreed equity stake and providing both financial and managerial capital drawn from over twenty years of experience within the Escort Teknoloji group. Its portfolio spans a broad range of areas including digital products and services, health solutions, renewable energy, business intelligence and enterprise tools, consumer e-commerce and payments, and IoT.
